Laypeople or Priests?

With each member, of His Body
To be equipped, and taught
For the work of the ministry
Yet this vision, is rarely caught.

Our Spiritual ‘Nursery’

Our spiritual foundation
Our life purpose, our soul
Are so molded by our ‘nursery’
By their focus and goals.

Adding or Multiplying?

Sadly, leaders look to adding
Are not mentoring, disciple-making
With a vision, to reproduce
‘Fishers of men’…in the making.

A Fellowship on Fire

Most depend on their pastor
For their ‘weekly bread’
The band, and kid’s programs
And they’re feeling fed.

Until They All Hear

Sow seed to multiply
Do lead, among seekers
Good soil, bearing fruit
Disciple-makers, not just Believers.

The Faithful Worker

So be steadfast, immovable
Always abound, and remain
In the work of the LORD
Know your labor’s, not in vain.

Teaching to Know, or to Obey?

Far too often, we gather
More head knowledge, attained
But little ‘how-to’, or mentoring
So our lives, are not changed.

Sterile Churches

Yet, how many pastors
Or leaders go out
Daily witness, make disciples
Spread the gospel about?

Soil Inspection       

Jesus’ Word, is like seed
In four soils, can be found
Some wayside, some stony
Amidst thorns, or good ground.

So Many, So Few

Awaken Your saints
Turn from selfish living
To pray and obey
To go, truly giving.
